Under bridges beneath trestles in the boxcars of dead trains

Livin' to beat the cold of the pouring driving rain

A silent society moves out in the night

Ragged rebels homeless hobos and those like me

Who've lost the light

St Peter is a prophet to all the hobo world

An expert on everything

From caviar to girls

I met him west of

Memphis on the 8th of

July He handed me a can of beans and a rusty knife

And he said everything out here ain't what it

seems And when you're down to nothing Just go

ahead and dream Face the fact that you're circle in a

world full of squares Trading sorrows

for tomorrows now that's the hobo's prayer

Mother Mary is a lady from down in

New Orleans

She's seen a lot of living since she was 17

She said I'm bona fide and worldly wise

with original parts 'cept for what set me to

traveling I'm talking about my heart

She said I can spot a broken heart from 20 miles away

So are you passing through or have you come to stay

You're running from a woman she said with a grin

So what've you got to say and

I said I am a pilgrim

Where everything out here ain't what it seems

When I'm down to nothing

I just go ahead and dream

And face the fact that

I'm a circle in a world full of squares

Trading sorrows for tomorrows that's the hobo's prayer

Trading sorrows for tomorrows that's the hobo's prayer
